Panther Canyon Nature Trail
Spend a wonderful time studying all the trail markers along the 51 acre Panther Canyon Natural Trail in Landa Park. This protected wilderness is an excellent example of one of the faults in the Edwards Limestone. The gently slopping pedestrian trail leads visitors approximately eight-tenths of a mile through the Balcones Escarpment.
Hikers should allow at least 1.5 hours for the 1.6 mile round trip hike. A trail marker guide is available at the Parks Department Office in Landa Park.
